Question

Quadrilateral BCDE is similar to quadrilateral FGHI. Find the measure of side HI. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary

Answer 1

we have:

`(HI)/(DE)=(IF)/(EB)`

so

`\begin{gathered} (HI)/(23)=(59)/(14) \\ 14HI=59\cdot23 \\ 14\cdot HI=1357 \\ HI=(1357)/(14) \\ HI=96.9 \end{gathered}`

answer: HI = 96.9
